Description: You can use ZIPlib to add different resources to a ZIP file.
Generall Information about this class:
With the constructor you can set the name of the archive, the
path to FDPF and to DeepDir if needed.
The usage of FPDF in combination with this class is described in
the function "addFileAsPDF".
Off course you can combine the functions as you wish it.
An example can be found in the example.php
*************************************************************************
Function: addFile()
Syntax: void addFile( string Content, string Filename )
Description: Use addFile() to add the content of a file to your
ZIP archive. The filecontent must be allready in a
string.
This function is usefull to add the content of a BLOB
field from a database.
To add a complete file you should use the function
"addFileAndRead".
Example:
<?php
ob_start();
require('zip.lib.php');
$zipfile = new zipfile('archive.zip');
$zipfile->addFile('Inhalt', 'Dateiname');
echo $zipfile->file();
?>
*************************************************************************
Function: addFileAndRead()
Syntax: void addFile( resource Filename )
Description: addFileAndRead() takes a file, reads it and add it
to your archive. The targetfile in the archive has
the same name as the sourcefile.
This function can read ASCII and binary files.
Example:
<?php
ob_start();
require('zip.lib.php');
$zipfile = new zipfile('archive.zip');
$zipfile->addFileAndRead('Datei.bin');
echo $zipfile->file();
?>
*************************************************************************
Function: addDirContent()
Syntax: void addDirContent( resource dir_handle )
Description: To add a complete dir you can use this function.
It doesn't matter if there are binary or ASCII files
in the dir.
The function doesn't work recursiv without the DeepDir
Class from Ilya Nemihin.
You can grab the latest version of DeepDir at phpclasses.org:
http://www.phpclasses.org/browse.html/package/1025.html
Example:
<?php
ob_start();
require('zip.lib.php');
$zipfile = new zipfile('archive.zip');
$zipfile->addDirContent('./');
echo $zipfile->file();
?>
*************************************************************************
Function: addFileAsPDF()
Syntax: void addFileAsPDF( resource file_handle, string title, string autor )
Description: This function adds an ASCII file (binary files are
unsupported!) as PDF to the ZIP file.
To use this function you have to extend FPDF
(http://www.fpdf.org/) with this function:
function getBuffer () {
global $HTTP_ENV_VARS;
if($this->state < 3) $this->Close();
return $this->buffer;
}
You should find an extended version of FPDF
in this release of ZIPlib.
Example:
<?php
ob_start();
require('zip.lib.php');
$zipfile = new zipfile('archive.zip');
$zipfile->addFileAsPDF('Quelldatei.txt', 'Testdatei', 'Webmaster');
echo $zipfile->file();
?>
